Several NW breeders of Britannia Petites have been talking about hosting specialty shows, and just having some camaraderie - at large all-breeds shows, the more rare breeds can get lost in the shuffle, it seems! Jake Kuntz and Tasia Thomas were instrumental in forming a Brit specialty club - Brits Northwest. The ARBA Charter paperwork have been submitted, so we should have an operational club by the first of the year!Jake (from Washington) is our club President, and Tasia (from Idaho) is the Vice President. I'll be serving as Secretary/Treasurer until we have a "real" club with actual funds - then, we'll need to hold elections and separate these positions. Our initial Board of Directors consists of: Cathy Armstrong (from Washington), Judy English (from California), and Christine Shultz (from Montana). Initial members include: Jean Safford, Carrie Engel, Molly Ann Donley-Robitaille, Dusty Katzenburger, and Merrill Ott.Welcome, and stay tune for news!Anne Ott
